Michigan’s Accident Fund Honored by Lansing Regional Chamber

Lansing, Mich.-based workers compensation insurer Accident Fund Insurance Co. of America, was one of four Lansing-area businesses recently recognized for significant investment in the greater Lansing region by the Lansing Regional Chamber of Commerce at its fifth annual “Celebration of Regional Growth” event.

Accident Fund was chosen for a Regional Economic Growth Award by the Lansing Chamber this year because of its renovation of the former Lansing Board of Water & Light Ottawa Street Station power plant into its new national headquarters. This renovation project involved the removal of a city-owned parking structure; the renovation of the power plant building, which had sat dormant for many years and was deemed a Brownfield site; the construction of a new building connected to the power plant structure by a four-story atrium; and the construction of a new 1,000-car parking deck.

“Our growth over the past 10 years has been pretty significant, and while we are growing nationally, we chose to keep our headquarters in Lansing,” said Liz Haar, president and CEO of Accident Fund Holdings Inc. “We are proud that the renovation and construction of our new headquarters is an integral step to reviving Lansing’s riverfront.”
